This thread confused me.  I have this in my system and I have not changed the 
permissions from when it was installed:

ls -la /usr/libexec/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
-rws--x--- 1 root messagebus 322984 Jun 22  2013 /usr/libexec/dbus-daemon-
launch-helper

Is the suid bit dangerous and if so what is the alternative?  Should there be 
a bug filed on it?
